GALVESTON, TEX, Feb. l7.-But Jew
local events have created more profound
regret than the publication this morning
of the facts emanating from Grand Mas
ter Gibbs, at late hour last night, in the
defalcation of Judge Thomas M. Joseph,
late Treasurer Of the Grand Lodge of Texas
Odd Fellows. Notwithstanding the
rumors that hsd been circulating Tor
several days regarding Judge Joseph,
the announcement that he had confessed
his shortage was q genuine surprise to
a msiority of his many friends, and good
deal of dissatisfaction was expressed to-
dsy by Odd Fellows and others at what
they term undue haste on the
part of Grand Master Gibbs in
giving the facts for publication.
In fact it is openly stated by Joseph's
friends that at the conclusion of his pain
full conference last night with Grand Mas
ter Gibbs, the latter expressly promised
Judge Joseph not to make known to any
one the fact of Mr.. Joseph's frank con-
fession until the latter had an opportunl.
ty to consult with his bondsmen, and, II
possible, induce them to come to his res
cue. In other words, Judge Joseph's
family claim that it was understood
that the embarrassed Treasurer was
to be given last chance 10
make good his deficit. Mr.. Joseph was

Deserted by tho knights of Labor they
Must be scabs."
NEW YORK, Feb. 17.-Captain Bourne
OF the Old Dominion steamship line, re-
plying to q delegation of strikers who
called on him with q view of
getting back to work, said he had
$50 men at work who were equally
as good now as the strikers, and he did
not intend to discharge any of them to
make place for men who at the call of ir-
responsible parties were liable to
leave the company in the lurch
again as they had done once. The
proposal recently made by the former to
give some security, was not favorably re-
ceived by the men, and now they are left
out in the cold as the Longshoremen's
Union, District Assembly 40, refused
to render them any assistance. The
men who are thus thrown out of
employment are very indignant
at being ignored by No. 40, and say
there is nothing left for them but to be-
come "scabs." They also state that
either those who run 80 or the Longshore-
mems Union must be broken uD. The
Old Dominion Company will not have any
further dealings with its old hands.

greatly Frustrated this morning st tn,

greatly Frustrated this morning st the
publicity given to his downfall. In an
interview this afternoon Mr.. Gibbs stated
he had telegrsphed to Austin for Treas
urer Joseph's bond, and would take no
legal steps in the matter until its arrival.
1t is currently reported tonight that an
affidavit against Treasurer Joseph will be
sworn out and served tomorrow. Mr..
Joseph has the warm sympathy of the
people generally in Galveston, where has
lived nearly forty years, and in addition
to his five years. service as Mayor of the
city, he also served acceptably for sew
eral years as Judge of the county. There
is likely to be difficulty regarding the
liability upon Joseph's bond. There are
two sets of bondsmen-the old bonds
men of four years ego, and the more
recent bondsmen, who signed on
the election Of Joseph two
years sgo. Inasmuch as Joseph
admits the S2S, l65 was all lost four years
ago, the question arises can the new bonds
men be held liable? There is some talk
among Joseph's friends here of extending
him helping hand by voluntary sub
sCriptiOn.
